From Red Herring - William Janeway, Warburg Pincus

Just sat in on William Janeway’s keynote presentation at Red Herring Spring. I blogged my observations on the Socialtext Eventspace here.

Two book recommendations from Janeway, that will be wort reading: Technology Paradise Lost: Why Companies Will Spend Less to Get More from Information Technology by Erik Keller, and Understanding the Digital Economy: Data, Tools, and Research by Erik Brynjolfsson. Both reinforce some of the statements and conclusions Janeway made that I covered in the blog post; both sound like worthwhile reads for anyone wanting a better understanding of how technology is changing the traditional business environment.
